If you could capture one history event..

Real History : the making of the Great Pyramid of Gizeh ... such a gigantic building it must have been. So many people must have been involved (or is it just a space ship that landed there by mistake? :) )

Middle-Earth History : ... I guess I don't have to answer that. Sounds too obvious :P

Real: The face of Columbus when he discovered America

Reason: I think he would put up a very funny face :)

Middle-Earth: When Sauron lost his finger and ring :P

Reason: Dunno, the only think I could think off. :drug:

The Battle of Hastings and its aftermath, mostly because my ancestors from two branches of my mom's side of the family were at Hastings. I would have liked to see them in action, not to mention being able to see William the Conqueror himself.

Hmm... I'd probably want to capture the Battle of Chalons on video tape, since it was the last great battle of the Roman Empire, stopping the Huns from going ape all over Western Europe....or so the propaganda says B) Okay, even if the Huns did invade Italy the following year, it made them think twice and made them retreat to Hungary. It allowed the peoples of Dark Age Europe to develope in relative safety. Sort of a last gift to humanity from Rome :):)

Latin is a cool language, and that when you think of it is probably the greatest gift the Romans gave civilization in general: it allowed people to go back to ancient texts and learn during the Middle Ages, bringing on the Renaissance (sp?) :)
